Utah Jazz 2018-19 Championship Bus CHOO CHOO

Novel concept but you could just answer fish...

He said that the same team that got beat by 50 by Dallas, with Mitchell, meaning us, and then lost 6 of our last 8, were probably not even going to make the playoffs. Obviously this was back before we took a turn.

He also said Donovan's teammates resented him.

You can't see Doug's tweet that Tony replied to?

I was just reading the tweets you were posting. Then I tried clicking on the tweet and the whole tweet thread thing showed up.
I got it now. My bad.

I don't know why everyone is so afraid of Rockets. Or the Warriors. Both are much more vulnerable than last year, for different reason, and both teams are at this point mostly hype.

Every year I hear about how vulnerable GSW REALLY are this year. No thank you.

I do agree that Houston is manageable. Bet Jazz would make a good series out of it.

But let's hope for Portland.

Anyone but GS in the second is great.

Apparently Kevin Love is missing this afternoon's game against The Clippers because he was out partying all night in LA.

I’m not old by any stretch, but Twitter is not that intuitive. Granted, I don’t use the app, but it should be easier.

Hmm. I’ll have to think how this affects my prediction that we’d trade for him.

Yeah wtf. If we get Houston round 1 I'm gonna cry.

**** that. Payback, bitches.

**** that. Payback, bitches.

I think Houston is more vulnerable. With Dedman, I would be even more optimistic. I got a hunch QS has been constructing an evil scheme for them.

Nah Houston is the one non-Warriors team in the West that the Jazz don't want to see. OKC too if PG's shoulder isn't bothering him but if it is I'd be ok with seeing them as well.

Looks like he went through warmups, but he has some kind of leg issue. Might just be a smokescreen, of course.
But what a terrible first ~5 minutes. 4-0 Portland...

Jazz were 5th in the NBA last year with a 4.3 NET rating. 1st was the Rockets at 8.4.

Right now we’re 4th with 4.8. The Bucks are 1st at 9.2, the Dubs second at 5.6, and the Raptors third at 5.3.

Makes me feel pretty good considering our slow start which had a ton to do with Mitchell’s slow start coming back from injury.

Let’s ****ing go.

I wonder what would happen to those rankings if every team got a one-game mulligan. Like, if we subtract our 50-point embarrassment in Dallas from our data set, I imagine a lot of our statistics would be interesting to see.

Yep.

And if my math’s right, we’d jump to a 5.5 NET rating minus that game.
